About Athens Lens
☕ About Athens Lens
Hi, I’m Ahmed Hamed — a photographer, filmmaker, and recent graduate in Communication and Development Studies from Ohio University. I created Athens Lens as a visual storytelling project to capture the heart of Athens, Ohio and the powerful stories of the people who live here.
Through photography and short videos, I highlight social justice, cultural heritage, and everyday beauty in a small town with a big spirit. My goal is to use art as a tool for awareness, connection, and change.
If you enjoy my work and believe in the power of storytelling to uplift communities, you can now “buy me a coffee” to help me keep this project alive and growing. Your support goes directly toward equipment, travel, editing time, and attending conferences to share this work with a wider audience.
Thank you for being here and for believing in what I do 🌟
Let’s keep telling these stories together.
— Ahmed
